Shining Star CLE is a unique solo-singing competition giving Northeast Ohio high school students the chance to compete for college scholarships.

Watch as the top 10 finalists put on their performance of a lifetime at the prestigious Ohio Theatre at Playhouse Square.

Students from across an eight-county area in Northeast Ohio will have an opportunity to wow a virtual audience in competition for $18,500 worth of college scholarships during Shining Star CLE 2020!

You or your organization can play an important role in this extraordinary event by being a supporter!

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are making changes to the format of The Finals, but the SHOW MUST GO ON and the Top 10 Finalists WILL perform and compete in a VIRTUAL fashion (details forthcoming) at The Finals Performance & Competition on Sunday, September 13, 2020.
